It is a cruel, ironical art, photography. The dragging of captured moments into the future; moments that should have been allowed to be evaporate into the past; should exist only in memories, glimpsed through the fog of events that came after. Photographs force us to see people before their future weighed them down…

Is a picture really worth a thousand words? What thousand words? A thousand words from a lunatic, or a thousand words from Nietzsche? Actually, Nietzsche was a lunatic, but you see my point. It’s wild to declare the equivalency of any picture with any army of 1,000 words. Photography is Visual Storytelling.

Photography

When I look at my old pictures, all I can see is what I used to be but am no longer. I think: What I can see is what I am not. I tend to think of the act of photographing, generally speaking, as an adventure. My favorite thing is to go where I’ve never been.
